Drops Air is a "blow yarn" made from soft baby alpaca and cozy and warm merino wool. Its construction is unique, based on the newest yarn technologies, where instead of spinning, the fibres of baby alpaca and merino wool are air blown into a tube, which makes the garments made in this yarn about 30-35% lighter than those made with conventional spun yarns of the same thickness. This yarn is feltable.DROPS Air is - as its name says - a very airy yarn that feels beautiful against the skin, which makes it perfect for accessories, shawls, sweaters and jackets in both textured and cable patterns. Garments made in DROPS Air are totally itch-free, which means everyone can wear them! 10-ply aran 65% Alpaca, 28% Polyamide, 7% Wool 164 yards (150 meters) 50 grams (1.76 ounces) 17.0 sts = 4 inches 5.00 mm (US 8) needles 5.00 mm (H) crochet hook Hand wash cold, Dry flat Superwash: no Made in: Peru/EURaw material origin: Alpaca and wool from South America, polyamide from Germany This yarn has an Oeko-Tex® certification (certificate number 22.HPE.07484), Standard 100, Class II from the Hohenstein Institute.
